Who we are

About Stripe

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies—from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups—use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone's reach while doing the most important work of your career.

About the team

Global Business Services’ (GBS) primary goal is to ensure operational excellence across deal cycles, increase revenue through the development of transformative commercial constructs, and drive closure of Stripe’s sold portfolio. The team's reach is widespread across Stripe, not exclusive to one sales segment or geographical region. GBS drives change across go-to-market, positively impacting Stripe users and cross-functional teams. GBS priorities are set through the direction of Stripe leadership and executive vision, partnership with sales and cross-functional organizations, as well as user feedback and market insights.

What you’ll do

The Global Business Services (GBS) team is looking for a Deal Strategist to focus on the closure of custom and standard commercial deals. You'll be responsible for deal lifecycle management and supporting cross-organizational alignment. This role requires a background in driving custom commercial and pricing deals to closure, a strong understanding of private pricing frameworks, as well as experience supporting sales through negotiations.

You will have experience with subscription products, pricing strategies, and a background in supporting selling motions. You have strong communication skills. You'll love this job if you are a natural relationship and mechanism builder.

Responsibilities

  • Work directly with sales teams, sales leaders, services and support teams, and customers to advise on deal structures, establish compelling commercials, and drive closure of customer issues
  • Understand the business and technical requirements of our customers and partners, advising sales teams on the best approach (balancing risk between custom terms and internal system limitations)
  • Remove internal blockers between cross-functional teams such as Product, Legal, Finance, Accounting, Service Teams, etc.
  • Support the sales cycle to ensure the deal terms align with Stripe goals, strategic vision is met, and closes as forecasted
  • Support complex negotiations involving bespoke commercial and legal agreements
  • Support the pricing and structuring of multithreaded product use cases in all segments and industries, especially in highly competitive sales
  • Quickly build credibility and trust with internal customers
  • Be a clear and concise communicator, able to simplify complex concepts, influence stakeholders, and advocate for our Deal team as a strategic partner

Who you are

We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

Minimum requirements

  • BA/BS degree in Business, Technology, Finance, or Economics with 4+ years of experience in deal management, procurement, pricing strategy, or financial consulting
  • Experience working in ambiguous, quickly scaling environments, comfortable with high-agency
  • Strong communication, presentation, negotiation, and project management skills
  • Experience working in Payments and SaaS, and redlining agreements
  • Experience in Salesforce and Ironclad

Preferred qualifications

  • AI fluency and passion for applying emerging technology efficiencies in the day-to-day
  • Experience training or enabling sales teams on pricing, quoting, and contract best practices
